THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 31, 1843. A Culpnblo Pcrrcrsloa A. B. Chow. Tho lost Statesman contains a most culpable por-vorsion of facts, in relation to A. S. Chow, Esq., who was for tlio yoara 1 84 1 anil Secretary to tlio Board of Fund Commissioners, and Private Secretary to Gov. Corwin. Tho article to which wo refer, is copied from tho St. Mary's Sentinel. In regard to that pupcr, want of capacity, and a mind inordinately imbued with prejudice against tho Bupport of domestic manufactures, such as prevailed in revolutionary times amongst tho political sect denominated Tories, togcthor with its being precluded by distanco from access to tho fountain of information, might lay tho foundation for soino cluiin on its part, to bo excused for its misrepresentations. But the Statesman can put forward no such excuso in regard to want of means at hand to ascertain the facts. All the information necessary to arrive at a just conclusion in tlio matter, aro in tho keeping of its political friends ; and ready of access. Had justico been within tho range of its purposo, it could in half an hour havo been satisfied by an inspection of tlio vouchers, that thero was not tlio slightest ground for putting forth tho unfounded declaration in aid of tho original un-pouluro of tlio St, Mary's Sentinel, that Mr. Chow " was going it among tho spoils with a perfect rush !" Thereby intending to convoy tho the idea that Mr. Chew had been appropriating tho public money to his own use, under the color of performing official duties. Now wo hesitsto not to say, that tho Statesman know bettor. It know that Mr. Chew acted under tho instruction, or by the permission of his superiors ; and that for ovcry cont which ho is charged with in the account which is so pompously paraded before tho public by tho Statesman, ho produced satisfactory vouchers fur tho expenditure, and that although tho money was drawn from tho Treasury in his name, yet that was no inoro for his personal emolument, than money drawn to pay interest on State stock, would bo for tho porsonnl uso of tho officer who might draw for tho same. The expenditures mado for tlio oilico were just such as in tho ordinary course of business would bo pnid by a man in any other business situation. Paper, ink, press, candles, books, engraving and printing Slato bonds, furniture for offices, &.C., aud as to his visits to different places to exchange funds, to meet tho payment of interest abroad, they are such as always havo been, and always must be made ; and which, had they not been made, the Stato would have failed to meet her engagements, and been disgraced, and placed in the aino light with other failing States. Let tho Statesman bear in mind that whenever tho doings of tlio present Board are inado public, tho same expendi-turcs will appear. But wo may bo tuld that if Mr. Chew is not guilty of using public money as a spoilsman, ho may mako a publication which will set him right before the o-plc. This the Statesman knows cannot bo done. It knows full well (and it evidently acts upon that information) that such is the morbidness of mind, prevailing among tho great majority of its readers, Unit on all subjects of a party aspect, a statement by it will ho regarded as a fact established, and they will never havo an opportunity of being undeceived, A party that feels it necessary In resort In sneli measures as that of falsely impcachirrg innocent individuals, for tlio purposo of keeping up iu hold upon public approbation, must havo very slight convic tions of tho justice of its motives ; and should this course bo continued, our public allairs must ultimate ly become a byo-word and a reproach to the name renublicnn. Wo close theso remarks with tlio expression of a full conviction that tho whole of this attack upon Mr Chew is void of all foundation in fact ; that he ne ver profited by any oxieuditurcs savo that of his Bulnry ; and that thero is nut tlio shadow of authority for abusing Gov. Corwin fur any expenditures made by Mr. Chew on Ins account. 1 lie only mo ney that can be drawn from tho treasury at the dis cretion of tho Governor, is charged to Ins "contin gent fund." Lot us test tho nlledged extravagant expenditure! of Gov. Corwin, with llioso of Gov. Shannon ; and for this purposo wo will toko tlio lost year of tho service of each. Gov.

In tho opinion of mnnv eminent statesmen of our country Mr. Clay among others a Tariff of duties barely necessary to Bupply a revenue, will bo sufficient, at tlio samo time, if judiciously imposed, to to foster nnd prelect our great manufacturing interest nirainst forcien competition. Kxiieriuuco will test the matter. Perhaps, in this estimate, sufficient alluwanco has not been made lor tho I act, that the British Manufacturer can procure tho capital, cshcii- tial in his business, for two-thirds of what it would cost the American ; nnd labor for ono-tliird. These two elements cuter into all manufactured fabrics, nd L'ive to Great Britain an advantage. But, on tho other hand, America excel hor in water power, and so far ns coarse fabric are concerned, wo havo no doubt Uio position is correct Indeed, we geo that our manufacturers havo been underselling the Enirlisti nt tlieir own doors in Manchester in tho coarser prints, and other cotton good. And it proves, among other tacts, ol what an inestimable benefit to our country has been ttiis samo protective system, which bus become so odious to somo of our small politician. It has developed the great resources of our country directed capital into different channels, building up many branches of industry, each supporting tho others, and all sustaining agriculture und cummercc.

Wc find men con-sluiitly exclaim, " no one great interest ought to bo protected at Uio expense ot ouier ; nnd you nre proposing to foster manufacture, by sacrificing commerce and agriculture." Is this true, however ? Docs tho protection uiven to mnniilactiire causo our com merce to languish, or injure agriculture ? Wo say the cuntrary is Hiisceptible of proof. Adequate protection ho enabled our manufactures to flourish and become a ffrcat branch of industry. Withuttt it, they could not have struggled into existence, against thu pauper Inbor of Euroe; nnd, let us but adopt thu principle ot "freo Iraiic, aim take oil oil iiu lion, it ia oeon now doillillul wiioihi'r they can wilh stand forciirii competition, esiiecially in the finor tub ries.

Ilesides his heuvv articles, such a erain, &.c, would not pay the cxiense of shipping, nud enable him to undersell iIioho of foreign countries. Huw important then, it is, to him, to have a certain market for hi surplus products ! Am! this ho will find in our manufacturing districts, Massachusetts, alone, nc cording to the most approved statistics, consume n much ul tho beet, pork, ham. nnd lard, ol hur sisler .states, us tho whole amount tlint is uxiorted to all foreign nation ; and she consume a larger amount of tho Hour and grain uf Uie other States, than the average which has been exerted to England and her provinces, for tho last six years. And where wuuld havo been Uiis market, if it had net been for thu protective system ? Why, these very men woh nro employed iu manufacture, nud who are consumers only of our surplus agricultural product, wuuld have uuen lorced lu become producer ol theo very article, nnd thus have been the mean of increasing tho sumttii. wlulo Uiey were diminishing the market or drmnad for them. They would havo resorted to agriculture, ol necessity, ino larmcrs might raise mi abundance, and yet have no market They would be less able to purchase such comfort a they cuiild not themselve produce, nud would, emphatically, be ioor amidst plenty. There i, wo may say, an inti mate connexion between agriculture nuu mnmiinc- lures, a may bo exemphhed by tho enso ot wool and woollen. In Ohio, INow lurk, i'ciuisylvamn, nnd several other Slates, the wool-growing interest i very mqiortaitt. 1 ho annual product may bo ante' ly ostiioaled nt sllLiKKI.OIX). Withdraw nil protec tion from tho woollen manufacture, nud the influx uf foreign woollen would soon destroy tho wool-growing interest; becnuse, by crushing our manu- luctoncsol woollens, our producer wouiu uo oepriv-ed of the homo market for lha article, ns they would ho shut out from the foreign, by restrictive duties. So, wo may safely conclude, that agriculture, nnd iiianulaetures go hand in hnnd, nnd prosper together, and that nny protection extended to the one, will rebound ultimately tu Uio best interests of tho other. But those in tho carrying trado may say that Uie prelection afforded to manufacture is inuirious to commerce. This, wo believe, is equally fallacious. Where wouiu navu ueen our commerce, u protection had never been extended to it f Why is there a tax on forciirn tonnairo, but that our bottoms may receive mot oi our carrying initio r ii.iui iiii-h-b-iiiuu ror our ship builders ever to havo competed successfully w ith those of foreign coiintric, without some such duly. But the use of home manufactures lessen tho import! of foreign, slid, therefore, injures pur commerce. This is tlio argument: let us exnuiino it Tlio import of a nation must be nreording to the . : . , . n I. : :i.i -.. ability of its people to puniinse. If our farmers hnvu a good market for their surplus product, tho money which arise from their alo will enable Uiom to ptirchnso many of tho comfort, and even luxuries of life. But ns wu do not manufacture much elso than Uie necessaries of life, of course to obtain tho various luxuries nnd cuiid'orl of other clinics, Uio carrying trade will bo encouraged, and comincrco will llourish, exactly in proportion na our people havo the menus to buy such article! ns they want Wo have shown that if nianufactiiri bo destroyed, the fanner will havo no market lor Uieir surplus pro. duct. If so, they cannut sell lo nny ndvantage.nni therefore cnunot purchase nny uf Uio comfort niul luxurie of other countries, lu obtain which itwouli bu necessary to cncoiirnL'o our commerce. Thus, llll llianuiactiire, agriculture in-s-i-n. ami, ui . ..:'!...- .... I ..r course, our commerce ; for " whatever drive uie plough or the machinery, lend, nt the same tune, to spread thu sail." Hoverse the picture. Destroy manufacture, you injure agriculture, by taking from the farmer hi market and then coumicrcu will languish. So, protection to innniifuctuio it not injurious to commerce. Agnin, there nre other answers lo this objection. Many of the articles used in maim- Incture nro brought iroin nnrnnu; aim ns uio raw materials aro more bulky nud heavy than tho manufactured articles, more shipping is employed in anp-lilvinu the raw material than wuuld bo necessary to supply the article manufactured. Besidos, our luan- utaclurrs, by increa-ing tuo pusines! Connexion between dillerent portion uf tlio Uuiun, increase tho coasting tradu and tho inlernul coinmerco. Add to this Uio amount ol mnniitnciured good wmcn aro exported, nnd it cannot be fairly tipiosid that protection to manufactures hns injured Uie commerce of tho country. It ha, therefore, over leemcil to lis tho wisest policy of the Government, so to discriminate in fixing duty upon foreign good, a! inriittntally to extend protection lo such of our manufactures a may need it. Wu menu to recur tu this subject again, when wo have more leisure. llnnka, Ho llnnks. It is recommended to Uio Vanocrnts of Tuscnra-wa county, that "they instruct tlieir delegates to go for no man for Representative unless ho pledges himself to support the Bank Reform law ot last winter, and to vote against chartering any morn Banks, if they wont Bank under it! provisions." Thi is the language of Uio Skunk of August 17.

What aro Banks to men who live by politic nud official salaries? They decrcaso Uio amount of their incomo. Why? llccauso good hanks will throw money into circulaliun, and of course will raiso Uio pricea of labor and of produce, As money become seurco, labor, ami produce be-eomu cheap.

Henco it is, that oristocrucy is raising in the land, 'who, if Uieir principles and politic prove successful, will, in a few year, form a body of privileged orders similar to tho English nobility.

But another year will demonstnrto Iho fallacy of this objection, by proving that tho Turilf is not prohibitory, and that while it will furnish the Government with tho means to meet its exiienscs, it will also pro tect American Inbor and benefit every interest iu our wiuety extended Republic. hxpenenco will provo tho wenkneas of every ob jection which is urged ngninst llio TarilV, and shuw that it is a system ot policy on which the peuple must rely fur truo independence and real prosperity.

Why, by the Whig Tariff of 1842, which tho Spectator and other advocates of a ono-sided Freo Trade, assail so incessantly, at Uio very moinout Uiat Uioy thus proclaim its beueficiel effects, and exult over them ! Had not that law been passed, and wo had continued to import from abroad under tho law a it stood when tho Whigs camo into power (to wit, 0 per cent duties) insteod of $120,000,-000 of specio in Uio United States, wo should not now havo had, we verily believe, r?( i0,000,000 ; for instead of 20,000,000 or more which havo llowod into tho country to adjust thu balance of trado in our favor, wu should have probably sent $ 10,000,000 abroad to adjust tho balanco of tradu against us. To exemplify this remark A document recently laid before tlio British Parliament show that the ex ports of British coeds to the United States, in Uio yoar 1B1U, ia j;I,2(J0,000 less in valuo than they have been in any year sinco IKi'J, and Uiat Uiey were lesa . by moro than ono nan uian tno average annual a-luount of the nino preceding year! tlio overage yearly export! of British goods to tho United State! trom lrsKI to lc-11 (both inclusive) being ot Uio valuo of 7,rJ80,0O0, while in 1812 they were not moro than vsjcvt. w cu, (say tne Freo Trado men,) it wo don't buy more from England, she will buy less from us, and bo wo shall lose, in tho sale of our productions, more than wo again by refusing to buy tliein. This is tho common argument wo knuw, which isj addressed to tho fears of Uio American planter. But it is reiutcu, as an tno ami-rami argument! arc, by tho fact stated in that samo Parliamentary document, thut whilo this dcclino has taken placo in Uio export of British goods to tho United States, tho amount of products importca into Great Britain from Uie United States had greatly increased Uiercby showing Uiat what wo havo always nssortod is truo, to wit, Uiat Great Britain docs not regulate her purchases from us by our purchasing Iroin nor, but by iiernccessiticl nlonc thnt sho hns always taken from us only what she could not dispenso wilh, and this she will continue to do, undor all circumstance. She is obliged to havo our cotton and tobacco, particularly the former and she tokos from U! iuat ns much ns she ab solutely requires, ond no more. She would only tako uiat amount it wo Dought trom her twico it! valuo sho will continue to tako that amount if wo buy from hor only hnlf iu valuo. Tho differenco is, however, Uint in Uio former case, tho balance of trado is against us, which wo must send to her in gold and silver in tho latter, Uie balance of trade la against her, which sho must settlo wiUi us in Uie samo way.

THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 31, 1843. A Culpnblo Pcrrcrsloa A. B. Chow. Tho lost Statesman contains a most culpable por-vorsion of facts, in relation to A. S. Chow, Esq., who was for tlio yoara 1 84 1 anil Secretary to tlio Board of Fund Commissioners, and Private Secretary to Gov. Corwin. Tho article to which wo refer, is copied from tho St. Mary's Sentinel. In regard to that pupcr, want of capacity, and a mind inordinately imbued with prejudice against tho Bupport of domestic manufactures, such as prevailed in revolutionary times amongst tho political sect denominated Tories, togcthor with its being precluded by distanco from access to tho fountain of information, might lay tho foundation for soino cluiin on its part, to bo excused for its misrepresentations. But the Statesman can put forward no such excuso in regard to want of means at hand to ascertain the facts. All the information necessary to arrive at a just conclusion in tlio matter, aro in tho keeping of its political friends ; and ready of access. Had justico been within tho range of its purposo, it could in half an hour havo been satisfied by an inspection of tlio vouchers, that thero was not tlio slightest ground for putting forth tho unfounded declaration in aid of tho original un-pouluro of tlio St, Mary's Sentinel, that Mr. Chow " was going it among tho spoils with a perfect rush !" Thereby intending to convoy tho the idea that Mr. Chew had been appropriating tho public money to his own use, under the color of performing official duties. Now wo hesitsto not to say, that tho Statesman know bettor. It know that Mr. Chew acted under tho instruction, or by the permission of his superiors ; and that for ovcry cont which ho is charged with in the account which is so pompously paraded before tho public by tho Statesman, ho produced satisfactory vouchers fur tho expenditure, and that although tho money was drawn from tho Treasury in his name, yet that was no inoro for his personal emolument, than money drawn to pay interest on State stock, would bo for tho porsonnl uso of tho officer who might draw for tho same. The expenditures mado for tlio oilico were just such as in tho ordinary course of business would bo pnid by a man in any other business situation. Paper, ink, press, candles, books, engraving and printing Slato bonds, furniture for offices, &.C., aud as to his visits to different places to exchange funds, to meet tho payment of interest abroad, they are such as always havo been, and always must be made ; and which, had they not been made, the Stato would have failed to meet her engagements, and been disgraced, and placed in the aino light with other failing States. Let tho Statesman bear in mind that whenever tho doings of tlio present Board are inado public, tho same expendi-turcs will appear. But wo may bo tuld that if Mr. Chew is not guilty of using public money as a spoilsman, ho may mako a publication which will set him right before the o-plc. This the Statesman knows cannot bo done. It knows full well (and it evidently acts upon that information) that such is the morbidness of mind, prevailing among tho great majority of its readers, Unit on all subjects of a party aspect, a statement by it will ho regarded as a fact established, and they will never havo an opportunity of being undeceived, A party that feels it necessary In resort In sneli measures as that of falsely impcachirrg innocent individuals, for tlio purposo of keeping up iu hold upon public approbation, must havo very slight convic tions of tho justice of its motives ; and should this course bo continued, our public allairs must ultimate ly become a byo-word and a reproach to the name renublicnn. Wo close theso remarks with tlio expression of a full conviction that tho whole of this attack upon Mr Chew is void of all foundation in fact ; that he ne ver profited by any oxieuditurcs savo that of his Bulnry ; and that thero is nut tlio shadow of authority for abusing Gov. Corwin fur any expenditures made by Mr. Chew on Ins account. 1 lie only mo ney that can be drawn from tho treasury at the dis cretion of tho Governor, is charged to Ins "contin gent fund."

In tho opinion of mnnv eminent statesmen of our country Mr. Clay among others a Tariff of duties barely necessary to Bupply a revenue, will bo sufficient, at tlio samo time, if judiciously imposed, to to foster nnd prelect our great manufacturing interest nirainst forcien competition. Kxiieriuuco will test the matter. Perhaps, in this estimate, sufficient alluwanco has not been made lor tho I act, that the British Manufacturer can procure tho capital, cshcii- tial in his business, for two-thirds of what it would cost the American ; nnd labor for ono-tliird. These two elements cuter into all manufactured fabrics, nd L'ive to Great Britain an advantage. But, on tho other hand, America excel hor in water power, and so far ns coarse fabric are concerned, wo havo no doubt Uio position is correct Indeed, we geo that our manufacturers havo been underselling the Enirlisti nt tlieir own doors in Manchester in tho coarser prints, and other cotton good. And it proves, among other tacts, ol what an inestimable benefit to our country has been ttiis samo protective system, which bus become so odious to somo of our small politician.

Wc find men con-sluiitly exclaim, " no one great interest ought to bo protected at Uio expense ot ouier ; nnd you nre proposing to foster manufacture, by sacrificing commerce and agriculture." Is this true, however ? Docs tho protection uiven to mnniilactiire causo our com merce to languish, or injure agriculture ? Wo say the cuntrary is Hiisceptible of proof. Adequate protection ho enabled our manufactures to flourish and become a ffrcat branch of industry.

Ilesides his heuvv articles, such a erain, &.c, would not pay the cxiense of shipping, nud enable him to undersell iIioho of foreign countries. Huw important then, it is, to him, to have a certain market for hi surplus products ! Am! this ho will find in our manufacturing districts, Massachusetts, alone, nc cording to the most approved statistics, consume n much ul tho beet, pork, ham. nnd lard, ol hur sisler .states, us tho whole amount tlint is uxiorted to all foreign nation ; and she consume a larger amount of tho Hour and grain uf Uie other States, than the average which has been exerted to England and her provinces, for tho last six years. And where wuuld havo been Uiis market, if it had net been for thu protective system ? Why, these very men woh nro employed iu manufacture, nud who are consumers only of our surplus agricultural product, wuuld have uuen lorced lu become producer ol theo very article, nnd thus have been the mean of increasing tho sumttii. wlulo Uiey were diminishing the market or drmnad for them. They would havo resorted to agriculture, ol necessity, ino larmcrs might raise mi abundance, and yet have no market They would be less able to purchase such comfort a they cuiild not themselve produce, nud would, emphatically, be ioor amidst plenty. There i, wo may say, an inti mate connexion between agriculture nuu mnmiinc- lures, a may bo exemphhed by tho enso ot wool and woollen. In Ohio, INow lurk, i'ciuisylvamn, nnd several other Slates, the wool-growing interest i very mqiortaitt. 1 ho annual product may bo ante' ly ostiioaled nt sllLiKKI.OIX). Withdraw nil protec tion from tho woollen manufacture, nud the influx uf foreign woollen would soon destroy tho wool-growing interest; becnuse, by crushing our manu- luctoncsol woollens, our producer wouiu uo oepriv-ed of the homo market for lha article, ns they would ho shut out from the foreign, by restrictive duties. So, wo may safely conclude, that agriculture, nnd iiianulaetures go hand in hnnd, nnd prosper together, and that nny protection extended to the one, will rebound ultimately tu Uio best interests of tho other. But those in tho carrying trado may say that Uie prelection afforded to manufacture is inuirious to commerce. This, wo believe, is equally fallacious. Where wouiu navu ueen our commerce, u protection had never been extended to it f Why is there a tax on forciirn tonnairo, but that our bottoms may receive mot oi our carrying initio r ii.iui iiii-h-b-iiiuu ror our ship builders ever to havo competed successfully w ith those of foreign coiintric, without some such duly. But the use of home manufactures lessen tho import! of foreign, slid, therefore, injures pur commerce. This is tlio argument: let us exnuiino it Tlio import of a nation must be nreording to the . : . , . n I. : :i.i -.. ability of its people to puniinse. If our farmers hnvu a good market for their surplus product, tho money which arise from their alo will enable Uiom to ptirchnso many of tho comfort, and even luxuries of life. But ns wu do not manufacture much elso than Uie necessaries of life, of course to obtain tho various luxuries nnd cuiid'orl of other clinics, Uio carrying trade will bo encouraged, and comincrco will llourish, exactly in proportion na our people havo the menus to buy such article! ns they want Wo have shown that if nianufactiiri bo destroyed, the fanner will havo no market lor Uieir surplus pro. duct. If so, they cannut sell lo nny ndvantage.nni therefore cnunot purchase nny uf Uio comfort niul luxurie of other countries, lu obtain which itwouli bu necessary to cncoiirnL'o our commerce. Thus, llll llianuiactiire, agriculture in-s-i-n. ami, ui . ..:'!...- .... I ..r course, our commerce ; for " whatever drive uie plough or the machinery, lend, nt the same tune, to spread thu sail." Hoverse the picture. Destroy manufacture, you injure agriculture, by taking from the farmer hi market and then coumicrcu will languish. So, protection to innniifuctuio it not injurious to commerce. Agnin, there nre other answers lo this objection. Many of the articles used in maim- Incture nro brought iroin nnrnnu; aim ns uio raw materials aro more bulky nud heavy than tho manufactured articles, more shipping is employed in anp-lilvinu the raw material than wuuld bo necessary to supply the article manufactured.

Add to this Uio amount ol mnniitnciured good wmcn aro exported, nnd it cannot be fairly tipiosid that protection to manufactures hns injured Uie commerce of tho country. It ha, therefore, over leemcil to lis tho wisest policy of the Government, so to discriminate in fixing duty upon foreign good, a! inriittntally to extend protection lo such of our manufactures a may need it.

She would only tako uiat amount it wo Dought trom her twico it! valuo sho will continue to tako that amount if wo buy from hor only hnlf iu valuo. Tho differenco is, however, Uint in Uio former case, tho balance of trado is against us, which wo must send to her in gold and silver in tho latter, Uie balance of trade la against her, which sho must settlo wiUi us in Uie samo way. Lynchbiagh Virginian, A Ren tVi-baler move, Tho following remarks aro extracted from an edi torial article in the New York Tribune, In our opin ion they are wormy ot all acceptation: "Wo have for some timo been aware of tho circu lation of a paper through tho tuwns of New Hampshire asking Mr. Webntcr to permit his namo to bo UBcd in tho Whig Convention as a candidate for President of tho United State! ! Extraordinary ai Uii! movement is, ws havo nol seen any good reason to oppose or censuro it If Mr. Webster has Whig; tnends any where who wish to placo In namo thu! before tho National Convention, they havo a perfect right to do it ana wo interpose no objection, a rue, wu know very well that Mr. W, ifacandiduto in his palmiest days of usefulness and unsullied fame, would have been boatcn worso in N. 11. than any other Whig without exception. Ho wns more hated nnd dreaded by tho demagogues whu control that Stato Uian any oUicr living man ; his name was their standing and most cll'ectivo bugbeur, wherewith tu affright the simplo iuUi the support of men and mens-uros condemned by their calmer judgments. But wo need not assure Mr. Webster, as Uie Loco Focos do his laic chief, that if ho should bo nominated for President wo should support him. NeiUior ho nor thoso who aro rendering him this hollow, reluctant compliment havo the most distant idea of his nomination. There is not an Electoral District in tho Union which could bo induced to scud a delo-gato in good faith fnvorablo to such numinntiuii. But the real object of thia movement is lo facilitate nnd grace his re-entrnnce into the Whig party, to furnish him aome capital to recominenco upon instead of thnt which ho has so unfortunately dispirited ; to enable him to come in with drums beating and colors flying, nnd talk nbuut the division among tho Whigs ns to tho candidate lor President, nnd suggest suino uncxccptionublo uuru man as a rom-nromiit. Against Uiis wo chose at the threshold lo enter our decided protest Tho Whig party boa fixed upon it! candidate for President, aud will not surrender its choice to Uio caprice of any individual. It welcomes nil who choose to its bnuncr, no matter how gront or how recent Uieir past errors, but it will not stoop lo buy Uio support of any may, nor docs tt owo reparation to any ; quito tho cuntrary. It will kill no tatted call to welcomo tho return ul any prodigal except such as would gladly cotno in, calf or no call. In Uie hour of gratelul repose alter overwhelming victory, in tho full flush of its sanguine anticipation of years uf ascendency and security, it cost aaide with learning tho but just lasted awect! of patrunago and power when it could no longer retain them without a sacrifico of principle and uf public good. It well know Uiat Uicro would bs entmgh to "crook tho pregnant hinge! of Uio knee' and it left to Uioe who could llntter where Uiey could notrotect nil the thrift that fulluwa fawning.' In defeat or in victory, in power or out of power, it will prove itself worthy of tlio lofty altitude it Uien assumed, nuw aud forever !" Klky, Tho effects of tho Locofoco papers to create a doubt aa In tho political complexion of Kentucky by reason of Uie clecuon of fivo members of Congress, is, perhaps, Uie best, aa it certainly is tho latest, joko uf tho season. But ridiculous as it is, it ii just what wo anticinted from a party so reckless as it ia in its aspirations for power. They carefully suppress all tho untoward circumstance which operated against Uio Whiga. They suppress all allusion to the overwhelming majority in tlio Legislature. Thoy suppress Uie fad Uiat tiro of Uieir member! elect owo their success, solely and exclusively, to the miserable distraction of tho Whigs. They take no notico of Uio overwhelming majority in Whito'a district, whore no opposiUun candidate showed his faco. All these thing go for nothing with those justice-loving ecnUemcn, who now parado before Uie country their lirr members as evidenco of Uio declining popularity ot Air. CLAY. Wo assert it as our dcliborato opinion that at no period of hor history has Kentucky boon thoroughly Whig than sho is now, and intends to remain. Tins will be demonstrated when Iho namo of Henri Clat is before Uio people of Uio State for tho Presidency. There may be jarring among his friends collision! of interest rivalries for honor but all Uiis will at onco disappear, when the gront baltlo in to bo fought undor Uio name aud banner of our indomitablo champion.Upon Uio wholo, we regard the Southern and Western elections sa indicating tho undoubted triumph of our causo. Tennessee, North Carolina and Kentucky may bo sot down as fixed and immoveable in their devotion to tho Whig cnuso. Perhnp! Uio only Stato where tho Whiga put funli their full strength was in Tennessee, It would not havn been dona Wirre, but fur Uiu peculiar combination of circumstances, which gave to Uie Tennessee elections an unu sual importance. As it is, Uieao States havo fully exhibited to tlieir sister Stnlea what the Whigs cum den when the sinko is of sullicient magnitude, to justify extraordinary excrtiun, Lexington Observer.
